We bought a new apartment in Auckland. We had 2 heat pumps. 1 lounge and 1 bedroom. In Feb with high humidity both heat pumps began to leak water down the wall inside the apartment. The installer came out. We insisted upon the GIB being removed to see where the leaking problem was. In both cases the installer had used the wrong conduit which carry’s the water away from the wall mounted units. In addition, where the drain from each wall mounted unit, should have been facing downward ( gravity to take the water away). These were installed facing upwards. The installer did this. This caused the overflow and water poured down the walls. This was rectified at no charge by the installer. BUT. My advice is to be very careful with choosing installers and personally supervise ALL installations to be safe.
